There was a recent article in the New York Times about a couple who conducted an informal study on what types of food they were able to eat with only a dollar each day for one month. ( Via Tanita )
The NY Times blogged about it. And got a quite a few comments. Basically, Kerri Leonard and Christopher Greenslate wanted to find out what types of food choices were out there for people who were cash poor. They blogged about this project and ended up raising $1,500 for a local community center. Each state has a different food stamp allotment per person, ranging from $3 to a little more than $5 per person per day. Do you think you would be feed your family a healthy meal based on these numbers? Especially one that is safe for a food allergic family member? © 2007 - 2008 Vivian Lee Mahoney - All Rights Reserved.
